Contact & Booking

A short note. A quick reply. From there we build the job.

Three Ways

How to start a conversation.

WhatsApp is fastest — most messages get a reply inside the hour during the working day. Email works for longer enquiries, attachments, or if you'd rather have a written record. Phone is always answered between 8 AM and 8 PM Croatian time.

The most useful first message tells me what kind of work you have in mind — a bareboat skipper engagement, a charter-company contract, a vessel delivery — plus the dates, the boat (if there is one), and any specifics that matter. From there I can usually come back with a proposal or a quote in one reply.

Where We Work From

Greater Pula.

For local skipper engagements — bareboat clients picking up from a Pula operator, charter-company weeks based here — the boat lives at one of the three Pula marinas. Most charter fleets work out of Marina Veruda or ACI Pula; some smaller operators are based at Polesana. The exact embarkation address comes from the charter operator and is confirmed once your booking is set. For deliveries, I travel to wherever the boat is — pickup point is yours to decide.

Pula Airport (PUY) is twelve minutes by car from any of the three marinas. Trieste, Venice, Ljubljana, and Zagreb airports are all within a three-hour drive for clients arriving by road.
